A high suspicion of AICA infarction should be considered in managing patients with acute vertigo and limb dysmetria, especially in patients with risk factors for stroke.
In addition, atrophy of the thalamencephalon which presents close connection with the motor-sensory cortex of the brain may occur secondary to the unilateral cerebral cortical infarction.
Conclusion: There is insulin resistance in patients with cerebral lacunal infarction.Cerebral insulin resistance may be one of its risk factors for cerebral lacunal infarction.
The ECG changes associated with infarction in this situation are identical to those of pure ischemia with depression of the ST segment, T-wave inversion or both.
So we've seen that in ST elevation MI, untreated a complete arterial occlusion may progress to infarction of the full thickness of the affected myocardial wall.
As shown here, as the process of infarction evolves the T waves may demonstrate a further abnormality developing ash a variable time point after occlusion.
